GRUB won't tell you anything about Apache.  You should be googling around.  Or perhaps ducking 
(http://duckduckgo.com/).

If you have no access to the server side you might not have a choice but to look at the packet 
trace.  It isn't that hard: if you see your password anywhere it's not doing what you want.  If you 
really want help trying that come to installfest.
